Rehearsals are now underway for the new version of the Finding Nemo Musical returning to Disney's Animal Kingdom in 2022 - "Finding Nemo: The Big Blue... and Beyond!"
According to social media posts from two of the show's performers, rehearsals began March 21 2022, and are expected to last for the next month or two. This timeline would suggest the new show will debut for the start of the summer season, around Memorial Day Weekend at the end of May.
Opening in 2022, the new show will be set in the timeline of "Finding Dory." Fan favorite songs from "Finding Nemo the Musical" will return, including "In the Big Blue World" and "Go with the Flow."
When you take a seat in the theater, you’ll find yourself at the Marine Life Institute. As the show begins, we catch up with the fish from Dr. P. Sherman's office in "Finding Nemo," who have made their way across the ocean to California. They tell the story of Nemo and how they all got there.
The original "Finding Nemo The Musical," which debuted in 2007 at Disney's Animal Kingdom, has not reopened since the park resumed operations in mid 2020.
